Bluto fictitiously rode this philosophy to the Senate. Several Leftists have in real-life taken it all the way to the White House. Too many to count have infested Congress and elected offices all over the country.

They in so many instances fought so hard and waited so long to impose them.

Their incessant, infernal screeching is largely for effect – the Left is actually very patient in waiting to attain new government power grabs. A quintessential example – the abomination that is ObamaCare.

The Affordable Care Act – ObamaCare – was signed into law in 2010. Was President Barack Obama and this modern cadre of Leftists the first ever to a want top-down, government health care takeover? Of course not.
